Actually is app-portage/portage-utils-0.2, not 2.0.

And the problem is that portage-utils-0.2 doesn't provide applet-list but the symlinks are created in the makefile.

I'm attaching a patch that fixes the ebuild.

[Comment 2 Federico Cuello 2009-03-23 13:28:51 UTC]

Created attachment 185982 [details]
fix symlink creation

[Comment 3 Sebastian Günther 2009-03-23 14:33:44 UTC]

sorry for the number switch.

It looks a bit strange when installing, you see the if statements in output...

patch does not work since there is DEPEND line which is not in the ebuild in the tree.

So I did by hand.

[Comment 4 Paul Varner (RETIRED) 2009-05-06 19:08:22 UTC]

I missed seeing that this was not assigned correctly.

[Comment 5 SpanKY 2009-12-05 09:58:13 UTC]

this is fixed in 0.2.1 already
